Grade 3 / Topic: Animal life cycles


Let us go walking in the deep forests to study the insect’s life cycle by watching the “BUGS! A RAINFOREST ADVENTURE” movie or we have to wear our snow jackets and travel across the polar area to watch the Bear life cycle and enjoying “LARS THE LITTLE POLAR BEAR” movie. Select the movie of your choice and our educator will give your students a talk about animal’s life cycle that will be followed by question/answer period.

BUGS! A RAINFOREST ADVENTURE

Get a view of the fascinating universe of insects magnified up to 250,000 times their normal size in A Rainforest Adventure – Bugs! Become immersed in a miniature world, where a leaf weighs as much as a car and a single raindrop can quench the largest thirst.
